2016下半年商务英语中级阅读模拟习题

　　篇一：

　　Dear MR Ballard,

　　You asked for a brief report concerning the recent events at the Southford Plant.

　　We have consulted the files and spoken to relevant members of the higher management and thus are able to provide an explanation for the breakdown reported in the press on 17 May of this year.

　　____1____ The handling equipment used to deliver the components to the assembly line has been known to be in need of an overhaul for the past six months. The plant has been working to full capacity to finish the American orders according to schedule.

　　As you know, we had commissioned a study by Industrial Research Consultants. ____2____ In it they warned that there was not enough space available to store sufficient components ____3____

　　We had decided to install fully automated robot system. However, at the same time it was clear to our production director that given the present maintenance staff, we would not have sufficient staff available if big problems were to arise____4____But we were still only working a two-shift system so the machines were not getting the necessary cover.

　　We all agree that the breakdown was extremely unfortunate and yet we must admit that, under the circumstance, it was not entirely unexpected.

　　We now believe that we have managed to sort out the major problems which we had been having with the conveyor equipment ____5____ Added to this is the fact that personnel department has been successful in recruiting some highly qualified maintenance staff who makes us confident that a repetition of the 16 May now seems entirely unlikely.

　　A. They also recommended expanding the present two-shift system to a three-shift one.

　　B. And also when the new robots are installed in September, we feel certain that such problems will become a thing of the past.

　　C. Unfortunately, as you know, there has been a major problem with recognizing the maintenance schedule.

　　D. The wide range of machine we operate is not fully supervised at all times.

　　E. The cause of the breakdown was very simple.

　　F. They submitted their report on April 5.

　　G. There have been a number of delays and breakdowns in production recently which have been reported in the press.

　　H. The firm has been advertising for maintenance engineers for some weeks.

　　I. All the facilities in the plant will be coordinated to enable the workers to step up production of the new range of machines.

　　答案：1. E;2. F;3. A;4. H;5.B

　　篇二：

　　Read this proposal about the CPT Word Processor.

　　l Choose the best sentence from the list A-I to fill each of the blanks.

　　l For each blank (8-12) mark one letter (A-I) on your Answer Sheet.

　　l De not mark any letter twice.

　　l One answer has been given as an example.

　　15 June 1993

　　Ms. Martha Weston

　　Word Processing Supervisor

　　ABC Company

　　Post Office Box 1072

　　28 King’s Street London

　　Dear Ms. Weston,

　　Performance of the CPT Equipment

　　I’m Pleased to tell you about our experience with the CPT Word Processor as you requested recently____example____ I assume you have looked at several machines and have narrowed down your choices.

　　Here are my observations.

　　An approach to adopting word processors

　　Eighteen months ago we adopted CPT equipment on limited scale with the idea in mind that we could gradually get rid of electric typewriters as we became familiar with the word processor. ____8____ The stations are actually in pairs so each pair can share a common printer ____9____

　　We use the equipment as dedicated word processors, although we do have the ability to link up with our computer installation.

　　The step-at-a-time development of our word-processing center has, we think, saved us money and training time. ____10____

　　Performance

　　In terms of performance, the CPT equipment is excellent. ____11____ Moreover our service contract and warranty have covered all maintenance costs.

　　We have software packages that check spelling and signal when a mistake occurs. ____12____ Using both printers, we recently prepared 1200 individually typed form letter mailings a under four hours. We have no complaint about our preparation of executive reports.

　　Example: I

　　A. So it works very well and has so many different functions.

　　B. Also it has reduced the confusion that exists about buying software packages.

　　C. The train stops at each station for only fifteen minutes.

　　D. We began with two work stations and now have four.

　　E. Our routine letters are prepared from disc-stored masters.

　　F. The Rotary W printer with a speed of 45 characters a second can easily handle two input stations.

　　G. In contrast, its size and weight are ideal for carrying.

　　H. We have not yet experienced mechanical problems so far.

　　I. We are pleased with its performance and multi-functions.

　　答案：8. D 9. F 10.B 11. H 12. E
